I Tried Lyrics by Damaged Bug

Bug on Yonkers

2020

Let me go, baby, let me be
I feel much better if you’re here with me
You’ve been mean, baby, done me wrong
I’d feel much better if you were gone

I tried, I tried, I tried
To make you happy with me
I tried, I tried, I tried
But you don’t care about me

Tell me, baby, what do you do
When my eyes ain’t watching you?
Carry on, baby, do it alone
Sneak in the coal to keep your furnace warm

But I tried, I tried, I tried
To keep you happy with me
I tried, I tried, I tried
But you don’t care about me

Oh I tried, I tried, I tried
To keep you happy with me
I tried, I tried, oh I tried
But you don’t stay by me

You left me, baby, for a one night stand
Did you forget about your lover man?
Just take your slippers out from under my bed
And never let me see you, live or dead

Oh I tried, I tried, I tried
Oh how I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried
But you don’t care about me
